Thanks for that link Wanga but if you got a JB iPhone things like that don't become a problem.I only really downloaded 3 app from the Appstore before I JB and found the world of the Appulous store.As soon as 3.0 is released,im updating and then JB-king straight away as soon as Ive done some homework to see if all is good.
@Rhino Facebook launches client for S60 5th edition.The application can be found in the OVI store if you interested.Go to AAS and look at some of the screenshots.It looks on par with the Apple iPhone equivalent.Good one Nokia/Facebook.Mmm what about my 3rd edition E90 me wonders?

@HintZA, I decided, after reading your post wrt the facebook app for S60V5 to try getting it.
Opened the ovi App on my 5800xm, 2nd app from the top was the facebook app, clicked it, and it asked me to login. Logged in with my nokia account details, and downloaded the app with no problems. Installed automatically from the ovi app, and it does look rather great on the phone. Much more functionality than the standard Facebook link/app that comes standard with the phone, and it looks clean, and most important, IT WORKS.

Glad u followed up on that Rhino and decided to download it.If you use Facebook on your mobile you need an app especially for your mobile,like the iPhone has its version.Hate going on Facebook through my phones browser or Operamini.You just dont get the full experience.So enjoy.

It's amazing how dof (or perhaps just innocently fairly ignorant?) some people can be, who don't research further than their noses; kinda like buying mobile games from these over-charging mobile game websites when you can get them free if you search around enough.
Last night I helped a friend find and download loads of games for his new C510. Fortunately the 240 x 320 screen made many of the established Nokia-orientated games, which are easy enough to find in abundance, work without a prob; well with the odd exception of the more processor-hungry games like Doom 3, LOL.

Brix
I would've also said what Hintza and Rhino said regardless of whether I'm a Nokia user or not...

Nor will I buy mobile games, I can't remember when I last bought or played a game on my phone, wanqs...

Hello everyone - long time no see. I thought after the elections are over I will have a bit more time but clearly that was a illusion. You chaps are aware of the new 12mp Samsung The 15mp can't be too far off. If you reside in SA you might be interested in this: http://www.dispatch.co.za/article.aspx?id=320291 Hmmm . . . I thing I will end up in Botswana I wonder if one has cell coverage in the middle of Okavango

Haven bothered with Music Store, i havent even checked out OVI Store couldn't be bothered. Ive got LimWire and MP3Raid for music and iPmart, Prodigits and Symbian Freak for apps and tweaks.
So i just witnessed my 1st police bribe, the dude i go home with after college got stopped for jumping a red robot, at this point i think to myself: cool he'll just get a ticket and we'll be on our way again, so the cop comes to his window tunes he's gona give him a "discount" whilest pretending to write a ticket while the dude pulls out 100bucks out his wallet, the cop takes the 100 under his booklet gives back the license and we're good to go lol, my thoughts? T.I.A (This is Africa). Mario i hope you're one of the good ones.
